Strong Winds and Ugly Blowing Dust


Gusty winds really picked up early this afternoon - over 60 mph at Atmo. Dept. and somewhere to southeast was open terrain that hadn't had much rain. Result was an ugly, thick plume of blowing dust that has worked northwestward and now obscures everything to the north. Up to the north, snow has turned to heavy rain so there is a hydrologic nightmare as it falls onto a heavy accumulation of snow cover.
